    Thanks for the video. A lot of hard work went into this engine by a lot of people. Whistle is of Georgia Railway origins, slightly shorter than an N&W hooter. It is possible that 58 had already encountered this whistle in revenue service, as the Georgia Railway and the AB&C were in close proximity to each other.

However later they went to basic black which is what that GP38 would have worn in its PRSL days. I wonder what the story is on that old RS-1 seen at the 5:00 mark?

It ran on the Tioga Central for a while before being acquired by the now somewhat defunct Southern Railroad Company of New Jersey. Apparently in the 2000s the locomotive suffered a cab fire, set by vandals while in storage in Salem, NJ.
